In Cooperation with : The Ministry of the Environment, Japan (MOEJ), The French Environment and Energy Management Agency (ADEME) & the Chair «Long term modeling and sustainable development» (ENPC-Mines Paristech).

The 7th annual meeting of LCS-RNnet draws its significance in the context of COP 21. It will be an opportunity to contribute to the emergence of a common understanding on :

  • the content of national policies leading to low carbon development;
  • the way COP 21 could provide an international support to these policies thanks to « climate finance ».

This conference will address Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) that individual countries will take under a global climate change agreement, and mechanisms to finance them beyond the Green Climate Fund. It will gather high level participants so as to discuss a common statement of the benefits of cooperation on climate policies, including equitable access to development.
